Each Hometalk member will lead a DIY craft demo on one of five Pinterest-inspired projects, offering hands-on help, ideas and advice. Pinterest is an online tool that allows participants to organize visual ideas, called “pins,” into collections, which are called “boards.” These collections are often used to save ideas for home decorating projects or instructions for craft projects.

Hometalk bloggers will appear at Michaels craft stores in Fairlawn and Brooklyn from 1 to 4 p.m. Jeanette Lockmiller of Akron, who writes the blog Snazzy Little Things on Hometalk, will lead the session at the Michaels store at 3750 W Market St., Fairlawn. Larissa Haynes of Ashland, author of the Hometalk blog Prodigal Pieces, will appear at the Michaels store at 4798 Ridge Rd, Brooklyn.

The projects include a bird cage filled with moss and succulents, a clay pot decorated with a stamped butterfly pattern, a wind chime, pastel photo frame and more. You can observe the sessions for free, or take your creation home if you purchase the supplies.
